I’ve spent years creating, designing, and developing for a variety of awesome clients and brands. I absolutely love creating, designing and developing visual and functional assets for clients and brands and I would love to create, design and/or develop something for you!
PROCESS
HOW I WORK
My design process is always, transparent, simple and hassle free. I try and make the design process as smooth as possible by giving you full control over the design process from start to finish.*
1.) Your Vision, Your Expectations
During our initial meeting (be it face to face or virtual), this is where I'll gather necessary information regarding your vision and expectations for the project. I will also explain, clarify and address any questions you may have.
2.) Gather and Organize Content
If you didn't provide any of your own content (images/pictures, verbiage/copy, etc.) during our initial meeting I will gather whatever content you may have (if any) as soon as you do.
3.) Create Mockup of Your Design
Depending on your project and based on the input from our initial meeting, regarding your vision and project expectations, I will create a mockup or preliminary design of your project.
4.) Submit Mockup for Your Approval
Once the mockup or preliminary design is completed, I will submit it to you for your approval. The turnaround time for submission will vary based on the type of project, with web projects requiring the most time.
5.) Complete Revisions (if any)
Although this step may not always happen, this is where I will re-do (revise = revision credits) any changes, edits, updates you request during the submission of your mockup/preliminary design.
6.) Submission of Files/Launch Site
Once you give the approval of the final design, this is where I will provide you with any associated files with your project and/or launch the website (in the event it's a web project).
